towing and trailer wiring?

[BlackMetal]

It kills me to install a hitch on this coupe, but I gotta get to the water, GPR can`t get there by itself

I picked up a Hidden hitch receiver, the correct conversion lighting module.

any tips on wiring the trailer lighting?

I`ll have to remove the carpet pins/clips and take a look to see where the tail light harness is hiding...

any comments are appreciated... Thanks...

hmmm, guessing no one here did this!? I just looked up the wire colors and connectors for the tail lights.

i THINK the harness is the same as the murano... lines go to the driver side, one wire threw the rear bumper and to the right to get the blinker an hazards.... not for certain tho... u can take off ur drivers taillight and u'll have a plethora of connections to tap into. theres the rubber stopper tho so u'll have to pull tht, then push/to pull back to set it in place again. gl, and dnt ruin ur rear springs lol. i wouldnt tow w/ eibachs XD

ah, it was cake!

the harness runs along the driver side, over the rear wheel well down below the stryofoam jack support/storage and up to the LH light first, then splits there and continues to the RH lamp assy. via under the trunk sill plate.

the wire harness is very tight, no real room to cut, solder, heat shrink, etc... so the best option was to strip about 1/2" off the wire (not cutting it) and twisting the conversion module wire to it and soldering, then cover with tape. when all done with all the wires, just make it neat and tape things up...

converter is hidden on rear body panel under the LH lamp assy, and grounded to the metal extension just below the filler door...

we`ll see how she does towing maybe this coming weekend, it`s just a short distance...

Can you throw up some pics of the hitch after install from the back. Thinking of getting one to get my bike around.
